Thump thump.
A few attendants carried a few large boxes and huffed as they entered the courtyard.
"Big brother, what are you doing…We're brothers!”
Zhu Lin quickly stood up and waved his hand.
"Don't say that…I don't lack anything here. Mother has given me a lot.”
Zhu Biao patted his shoulder.
"Sit, sit."
He pressed Zhu Lin down and said with a smile,
"Why are you so anxious? I didn't give this to you. Your sister-in-law prepared it for you. It's all things that your family can use.”
"Although we have many sons and brothers, we are the only real brothers from the same mother. Big Brother treats you differently from his other younger brothers.”
"You've suffered a lot these years. You should enjoy yourself.”
"Take it!"
When Zhu Lin heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved.
What a good big brother! If this big brother didn't die young and become the emperor…how good would that be?
"Thank you, big brother, thank you, big sister-in-law…Oh right, which big sister-in-law is it?”
He stood up and cupped his hands in thanks before suddenly asking.
Zhu Lin remembered that Zhu Biao had two Crown Princess Consorts. One was Chang Yuchun's daughter, Madam Chang. After Madam Chang died, Zhu Yunwen's mother, Madam Lu, became the Crown Princess.
These two were not ordinary.
"I think you're still that muddle-headed!”
Zhu Biao knocked Zhu Lin's head and scolded him jokingly,
"Which other sister-in-law can there be? Naturally, it's your Uncle Chang's daughter, Madam Chang!”
"Speaking of which, you haven't seen each other for a long time. My Xiong Ying and Yun Wen, when you're done with your confinement, come to the Eastern Palace and play with your nephew.”
"They've been making a lot of noise lately."
Zhu Lin suddenly understood.
"I understand, I understand. When the time comes, I will definitely come and play with big nephew!”
Logically speaking, Zhu Yunwen shouldn't have been born yet…Perhaps it was because the timeline of the big Ming that he was in was different?
Fortunately, he was a prince and had the system by his side. He did not need to rely on foresight to survive.
"That's right."
Zhu Biao nodded in satisfaction and stood up.
"Alright, it's getting late. I still have to go back and deal with government affairs.”
"Brat, you should endure for another two days. When you have time, you can learn the classics. Master Song is very strict in his studies. If you don't take it seriously, your butt will explode.”
"Let's go!"
"Alright, alright." Zhu Lin readily agreed." Goodbye, Big Brother."”
Zhu Lin sent Zhu Biao to the door and watched him leave. Only then did Zhu Lin turn around and return to the courtyard.
He looked up and saw Lixia standing in front of him with a stack of books in her hands.
"Your Highness, these are the books you wanted to read…"
Lixia said obediently.
"The Four Books and Five Classics, as well as Zhu Xi's annotations from the Song Dynasty, are all on it.”
"You can learn it first…"
Zhu Lin glared at her.
"Studying. Learn my ass!"
He raised his hand and said,
"Take it away, take it away. Don't use these things to annoy me!”
"Go! Bring a rattan chair over for me, I want to sleep for a while! If you bring these things over again in the future, be careful that I beat you up!”
Before he transmigrated, he was a miserable student. After transmigrating, he still wanted to be a miserable student.
Wouldn't that mean that he had crossed over for nothing?
"Yes…yes."
Li Xia was shocked. He had no choice but to carry the books away and order for rattan chairs, fruit plates, and pastries.
Zhu Lin sat down on the rattan chair, enjoying the fruit platter and Li Xia's massage. He was so comfortable that his eyes narrowed into a line.
"This is the life your highness should live…"
……
Forbidden City, Fengxian Hall.
Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the memorial in front of him, and his expression was not too good.
The person standing in front of him was Crown Prince Zhu Biao.
"Father, that bunch of Huaixi nobles have embezzled the land of the commoners, causing the commoners to complain.”
Zhu Biao said in a deep voice,
"According to the memorial, they also kept private armed forces and domestic slaves. Many people adopted countless foster sons, just like Zhang Liang of the Tang Dynasty.”
"In the past few days, my son has received many memorials to impeach them.”
Zhu Yuanzhang snorted.
"A few hundred? We don't even have that many foster sons! Did Zhang Liang of the Tang Dynasty…rebel?”
he asked.
Zhu Biao nodded.
"Yes."
He replied,
"Zhang Liang adopted 500 adopted sons with different aspirations. In the end, he was executed for treason.”
Zhu Yuanzhang copied the memorial and looked at it again. A ball of fire had already risen in his heart.
"Who submitted the memorial to impeach them?”
He asked again,
"Liu Bowen and the others?"
"They are indeed the Imperial Censors.”Zhu Biao replied truthfully.
"Hmph, a factional struggle!"
Zhu Yuanzhang slammed the memorial on the table and closed his eyes.
"Alright, I know about this. You can go down first.”
When Zhu Biao heard this, his expression turned anxious.
"Father, this isn't a factional dispute. Huaixi's gang is indeed too much!”
He hurriedly said,
"If this continues, we will lose the hearts of the people! As censors, I feel that they are very competent and upright. They dare to expose these dirty things!”
"You can't say that the censors are engaging in a party struggle just because Liu Bowen is from eastern Zhejiang! This is ignoring the facts!"
Zhu Yuanzhang's beard trembled.
"If we say so, then so be it! Besides, are you sure that the censor's words are completely true and that he didn't add fuel to the fire?”
He slammed the table and said,
"You little brat, how dare you talk to us like this!”
"Let me tell you, you can't trust the words of others! Only when he saw it with his own eyes and found out could he believe it!”
"When the hair on your mouth is as much as mine, come and teach me a lesson!”
"Let's suppress this matter for now and go back to work!”
Zhu Biao breathed out two puffs of air.
"Alright, then I'll take it that I'll handle it properly. I still have one more thing to do.”
Although he was a little unhappy, he still said patiently,
"Little brother is almost grounded. It's time to let him out.”
"He's left behind a lot of homework. We should let him study with Master Song earlier and make up for what he needs to learn.”
Zhu Yuanzhang glared.
"This kid has caused such a huge disaster, but he has only been grounded for a few days? You want to let him out?"
He reprimanded,
"This is so light. Do you believe that he will dare to do it again next time?”
"If you want to make up for your homework, it's not a matter of a few days. We'll talk after fifteen days!”
Hearing this, Zhu Biao also lost his temper.
"You're not allowed to do this or that. Then my son won't be in charge anymore!”
He also slammed the table and said,
"Either punish Huaixi's noble, or let me go! Otherwise, I'm too boring as the Crown Prince. I can't make any decisions and don't care about anything!”
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned.
"Hey, you brat, you still have your temper…"
Instead of getting angry, he laughed and said,
"Good, good, good. You're right. As the Crown Prince, you should have the power to be the Crown Prince. Otherwise, what's the point of having a Crown Prince?”
"You went to see that kid? What is he doing?"
Old Zhu was not unhappy with Zhu Biao's slamming of the table and glaring at him. Instead, he was quite happy.
"He's boxing and wants to practice with me.”
Zhu Biao snorted.
"That set of long fists is quite decent. Little Brother is also very strong. Even I am not his match.”
"This is like Father."
Zhu Yuanzhang burst into laughter.
"Hahaha…you're so weak, who can beat you?”
He smiled and said,
"Alright, alright. Seeing that he's so bored, let's lift his ban!”
"Let him study in the main hall tomorrow!”
